Direction & Prison Islands

 

Ripper was our first dive on Cocos.  It is named after a small channel on the south of Direction Island called The Rip.  As our first dive it is relatively shallow - 19.5m being our maximum depth.  The depth varies here from a shallow of around 8m and gradually falls away into the deep depths in excess of 60m.  Fish life is abundant and we did see our first reef sharks as well.
